Description:

Take a REST!

Nature will always be a wonder to us as each organism works together to form a perfect ecosystem. Ahead of you, we have an area that floods when the lake levels rise, abundantly filling with wildlife like plants, beavers, ducks, fish, and other animals that rely on the water for life.

The American Beaver (Castor Canadensis), builds dams along the banks of streams and rivers. They are the largest rodent in Kansas and can weigh up to 60 pounds. Ahead of you there may be a dome shape made of logs, which could be an active beaver dam.
